For the price you can't beat it.It holds a ton of line, plenty of drag, it's two speed, and it's light. Make it in America again and I'll give it 5 stars.

Great for Trolling and SharkingI bought two 30VSW reels to troll for tuna and shark fish in NJ. They are paired with Penn Bluewater Carnage rods and are great.The majority of my sharking was tag and release and the reels brought many browns, spinners, hammerheads and makos to the boat quickly. I did use it to harvest 1 mako this year. I enjoyed the product so much I purchased 2 of the 50VSWs for this season.

greatGave this reel a try and was very surprised, great for trolling and light plus its two speed. I use it a lot and it still looks great. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Light weight , perfect for my wife to handlePurchased as a combo with fully rollered stand up rod , mainly for my wife to use . Weight is an issue , the problems is solved , also I'm impressed with the reinforced body , drag is great . So far she has landed tuna, and mahi Mahi nothing large yet , better she hones her skills , while waiting for that fish of a life time

Great ReelI have caught a lot of red snapper and kings on this reel and it cranks them right up to the boat .The two speed action is wonderful.
